Imagine being sentenced as a “terrorist” by a judge who:
- Bans you from explaining to the jury why you took action
- Bans you from mentioning genocide, weapons, Elbit systems, murdered children
- Bans you from mentioning to jurors that they can acquit you as a matter of conscience
- Issues a retrial after a jury found you not guilty on the most serious charges
- Attempts to prosecute your barrister for telling jurors their legal rights
- Lies directly to the jury about their right to find you not guilty (jury equity)
- Calls for the arrest of multiple people outside your trial for holding paper signs
- Bans the press from reporting on the facts of the trial and sentencing
- Doesn’t take any action against ministers and politicians that prejudice your trial
- Doesn’t oppose media outlets who broadcast selective outrage during your trial
- Hides from the jury the fact that you will be sentenced as a terrorist if found guilty
- Sentences you as a terrorist without being charged with, or found guilty of, terrorism
- Receives a promotion immediately after the trial concludes.
Imagine that because that is precisely what Judge Justice Johnston did to the #Filton6
If this makes you mad, you may wish to attend their sentencing at Woolwich Crown Court Jun 12th
